Development Build 8193.22

Hello, friends!

A new patch marks another iteration towards an upcoming stable release. Please help us test this build and report any issues you spot.

New Game UI

Content is now presented as Official vs Community, instead of Campaigns vs Standalone.
Search filtering works better, can now filter by campaign names, authors.
More consistently-styled button sizes and UI elements.
Kingmaker, ShadowGuard and WitchesWake have been moved out of Premium into extra content on the Official content tab.
Filled in missing screenshots on the Premium modules.
Module sort order is now persisted to configuration
Various text/wording changes.

Water shader

More uniform appearance between shader quality modes.
Improve refraction and reflection precision/quality.
Water renders now after shadows and the SSAO pass.
Waves more natural-looking.
Translucence is now relative to source texture alpha.
Translucence now shadows the surface beneath the water.

NWScript Debugger

Added back script debugger binary into bin/win32/.
Added configuration keys to UI.
Fixed incorrect address parsing resulting in it not connecting. Also fixes setting debugger addresses other than localhost.
Fixed heap overflow parsing NDB files resulting in crashes.
Now renders all internal fields of CGameEffect.
Now renders all internal state of CScriptEvent.
Now renders cswysolver and sqlquery types instead of crashing in pitiful confusion.
Will no longer attempt to launch from within nwmain, you now need to run the binary by hand. On the plus side, it should now work on Linux and Mac (via wine/wine32to64).
